3.2 Connection Procedure

The ULC1001-DRV290xEVM image is shown in Figure 3-1. The entire EVM, LCS, and USB2ANY setup is shown in Figure 3-2. Follow these instructions to setup the system.

  1. Flip PWR switch off (off = O).
  2. With the power supply unplugged or off, connect to J4 or J6. Input 9V-16V, 8A. The 8A current is based on load requirements.
  3. Make sure the LCS or load is discharged and plug the LCS cable into the J5 terminal block. Output, 0Vp-250Vp, 3.5A, 10kHz-400 kHz.
  4. Connect the 10-pin I2C ribbon cable from the ULC1001-DRV290x EVM to the USB2ANY using J1.
  5. Connect the mini USB cable from the USB2ANY into the computer.
  6. Verify all safety procedures are followed before powering on the device (for example, personal protective equipment or a protective enclosure for the EVM setup).
  7. Turn on the power supply.
  8. Flip the Power Switch switch to the on position (on = I).
  9. Download and install the ULC1001 GUI available on TI mySecureSoftware.
